Hope McDermott Real Estate

From the first time Hope McDermott came to our house until the final day the sale closed, Hope and her colleagues were uniquely professional. We never had any doubts or reservations about the actions being undertaken to sell our house. We were very impressed with the process of setting the selling price, the staging of our house for presentation and the follow through needed to complete the many details that arise when selling a house. In addition to Hope and her own staff, we were delighted with the third parties she recommended for staging, selling antiques and moving our house hold items. We are pleased to provide a genuine, wholehearted recommendation for Hope McDermott Real Estate.

We had a wonderful experience working with Hope and her team. She initially helped us purchase our home and was excellent guiding us through the process of negotiating and executing our offer. Recently we needed to relocate out of state for work and we immediately thought of Hope to help us with the sale of our house. What a great decision that was! She launched a marketing effort including professional photos and video with drone photography. The house received its first offer within hours of our first open house and she helped us determine the best offer among the several we received. She and her team are so dedicated, responsive, and professional. They are truly exceptional! In the Dedham/Needham market there is no one better!

Hope is the ultimate professional and exactly who you want for a real estate agent. She guided us through a very difficult and frustrating market, drawing on her extensive expertise and knowledge. Hope is detail-oriented and meticulous in her approach. She understood what our goals were and she worked tirelessly to help us achieve them. Selling and buying a home is an incredibly stressful and emotional experience, but Hope’s calm and steady approach kept us reassured and grounded. Her team member, Will, is also excellent; he was very helpful throughout the selling of our previous home and the purchase of our new home. In short, we could not imagine working with anyone other than Hope McDermott Real Estate!

I have known of Hope McDermott for may years through my in-laws, who have used her to purchase and sell several homes in the Dedham area. They recommended her highly and we could not have been happier with the services she provided. Hope is a class act who exemplifies professionalism and is highly regarded with other brokers. Hope helped us purchase our dream home, below asking price, in one of the most difficult real estate markets in history. Throughout the entire process she was supportive, encouraging and offered sound advice. We always felt confident that she was looking out for our best interest. To top it off, she is funny and great to be around. Whether you are purchasing or selling your home, you are in great hands with Hope.

We had an incredible experience working with Will Ebben at Hope McDermott real estate. He went to extraordinary lengths to get us the home of our dreams and we couldn’t be more grateful. From the showing to the negotiation, he was a clear communicator who was always available when we had questions. We feel so lucky to have had his support and knowledge of the process!

Hope McDermott is at the very top of her profession. I bought and sold a home with her. She is a consummate professional. Always available, providing crucial advice, anticipating challenges instead of reacting to them. She has vast experience and resources. I used her referrals for contractor, designer and lawyer, happy to have used all of them. She participates in all phases until the job is done. She is easy and fun to work with, always calm, yet decisive in her advice. Her team is ultra professional and experienced, always helpful. I give Hope my highest recommendation to any home buyer/seller.

My wife and I worked with Hope McDermott and her company when we sold our house in Dedham, Massachusetts in June of 2020. We cannot say enough about how thorough Hope was in all of her efforts to sell our home. Her assessment of our property was professional and accurate, and Hope is a friendly and easy-going communicator.
She was always available and ready to show our home at a moment's notice. We sold our house within 4 weeks.

As she guided us through the process, it was obvious that her knowledge of the market and ability to identify buyers is her best asset. We appreciated her advice and counsel from the day we listed until our closing. We recommend her highly - Hope is the best!

Hope represented us when we bought a new home in Dedham, dealing very effectively and professionally with a difficult seller. We were very happy with the transaction. She also represented us in selling our previous home, helping us price it and stage it to maximize its market value. It was a quick sale and we were very satisfied with the price we received for the property. Hope is well known in this market and brings a lot of added value to her clients.

Hope McDermott and her associates are outstanding! We have sold 2 homes and purchased a condo with Hope. All 3 transactions were fantastic! Hope is extremely personable, knowledgeable, professional, and experienced with all the ins and outs of home sales. For our latest sale, particularly, Hope and her team went above and beyond to help us get the home ready to sell including calling and meeting service people to spruce up our home. She runs an A+ operation!

Hope and her team are a very friendly and efficient group. Hope was very patient, took note of our feedback on the type of home that appealed to us and quickly located the perfect home for us. She made the entire purchase process painless and went above and beyond in assisting us with a smooth transaction, especially since we were relocating from Australia with my husband and myself on different continents during that time. I would highly recommend Hope McDermott Real Estate.

We were so incredibly lucky to have Hope and Will on our side when trying to buy a house in the current real estate market, especially as first time home buyers. From the first phone call to the closing, Hope's helpfulness and expertise helped us to achieve what, at the outset, seemed like an insurmountable goal. Her knowledge of Dedham is unsurpassed and she consistently connected us with the best people to get the purchase done and the house ready to live in. We hope to be in our new home for a long time, but we will certainly turn to Hope for our future real estate needs, and would recommend anyone buying or selling in the Dedham area to do the same.

In choosing Hope McDermott Real Estate to sell my Dedham home, I was looking for a realtor with experience, a strong local connection, and a touch of class. Hope and her team were extremely professional delivering a high level of service throughout the entire process. They accommodated all of my requests and provided at least ten individual showings before the open house. They handled all the activities from the listing to the closing and made the entire process stress-free. I received five offers within five days of putting the house on the market, and the time from listing to closing was only six weeks. I could not have imagined such a smooth process. I highly recommend Hope McDermott Real Estate for anyone considering selling their home in Dedham or the surrounding area.

Hope did an outstanding job with our house. Her knowledge of the market, competitive landscape, current market trends and buyer sentiment helped us greatly. She also made sure all the permits and documentation was complete and accurate. The process was smooth and efficient.

It was pleasure dealing with Hope. We would recommend her highly.

We listed 3 condos with Hope McDermott Real Estate and they were fantastic right from the start. Our primary realtor was Bob Keogh and I can't say enough positive feedback about Bob. He was highly responsive, had great suggestions, was always polite and professional throughout all 3 sales. I would absolutely work with Hope McDermott (Bob Keogh) again in a minute either in purchasing or selling.

Thank you Bob and Hope for a great experience.

Hope is the best. Whether buying or selling a property, Hope is there 100% with her expertise, knowledge and attention to detail. Always available and willing to help with all of the big and small details of a real estate transaction, Hope makes the process as stress free as possible. We look forward to working with her again!

Selling a long time resident home is never easy. Hope had help us navigating through this difficult tasks with an understanding and professional approach to our needs. We are very happy with the service Hope provided and will certainly use Hope again for our real estate needs in the Dedham area.

I can't believe I forgot to write a review in praise of this wonderful woman. So here it is:
I sold my home just as the crash of 2008 was looming on the horizon (every day was "Is this the bottom"? Little did I know...) I had also been terribly burned by an unscrupulous agent, so I felt more than the usual measure of anxiety when selecting my new agent. I needed an agent I could trust implicitly, one who would give me wise advice, one who could draw on her expertise and experience, one who had the brains and class to market my home in the most appealing way. I got that from Hope--and much more. Because I trusted Hope so completely, I took all her advice to bring my home to its best selling condition, and I sold my home on the first day for full asking price. Hope not only made that possible, she kept me (almost) sane from beginning to end. If you're looking for someone to whom you can trust one of the most important decisions in your life, you could not do better than choosing Hope McDermott Real Estate.

Hope helped us buy our first family home and we couldn't be happier. Her knowledge of the marketplace made us feel confident about our decision. Another bonus is that she knows every contractor you may need during or after buying a house.

Hope was such a pleasure to work with. She made the process so easy and was extremely professional. We have the best new owners in our home and we were thrilled with the outcome. You can't find a better agent.

With Hope's help, we were able to sell our home without having to put it on the market. She found us a buyer who snapped it up quickly. And then she helped us fined the perfect spot in Boston. More than we ever could have hoped (pun intended) for!
